Dear all,

I'm currently running R on my laptop -- a Lenovo Thinkpad X201 (Intel Core
i7 CPU, M620, 2.67 Ghz, 8 GB RAM). The problem is that some of my
calculations run for several days sometimes even weeks (mainly simulations
over a large parameter space). Depending on the external conditions, my
laptop sometimes shuts down due to overheating.

I'm now thinking about buying a more powerful desktop PC or laptop. Can
anybody advise me on the best configuration to run R as fast as possible? I
will use this PC exclusively for R so any other factors are of limited
importance.

Thanks,

Michael
